Karolingerhof

It originally belonged to the court ring of the castle of the knights of Cröv, whose younger branch referred to themselves as Lords of Daun - named after the "tower" = castle in Daun - which they guarded on behalf of Kurtrier according to customary law. They bear the same coat of arms as the knights of Cröv, a red lattice (still the coat of arms of the city of Daun today). In the 14th century, the Lords of Daun were pressured so severely by Kurtrier that they relinquished the chairmanship as the Vogt of the Emperor in the free Kröver knight court, resulting in the electorate gradually claiming one third of the rights in the Kröver realm. The Kesselstatt, for Kurtrier, as "Obervogt", whose rights were represented in the Kröver realm, came into the possession of the former Dauner castle and eventually to one third of the Kondelwald. The castle house remained standing until the end of the 18th century. Between 1786 - 87, the present manor house was built, which was sold by Kesselstatt to Matth. Müllers in 1864. Today, there is a hotel in KAROLINGERHOF that combines the charm of past epochs with modernity and invites guests to enjoy the beauty of the Moselle in a unique ambiance.
